PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — Recently rescued Ragdoll cats are now available for adoption from the Pennsylvania SPCA.

Agents were able to save 78 cats and kittens from a home in Lancaster County last week.

“Lots of adults are ready to find homes of their own. While they are still nervous and adjusting to their new surroundings, we know that with patient, understanding adopters, they will gain confidence and blossom into wonderful kitties,” PSPCA said in a social media post.

The shelter says many have not yet been spayed or neutered due to the large number of cats rescued, so keep that in mind if traveling in hopes of adopting.

Animal enforcement executed a search warrant on the home in the 300 block of Spencer Avenue last Tuesday after receiving a tip. They say the animals were living in deplorable and unsanitary conditions, according to officials.

“Some were frightened. Some were sick. All were living in conditions no animal should ever have to endure,” PSPCA said in a social media post.

Investigators say they also found feces and trash throughout the home, where the cats were free-roaming inside.

“The air was harsh, but officers spent hours working through those physically demanding conditions to ensure every animal could be found and brought to safety,” the post said.

Many of the adult cats will be available for adoption at the SPCA’s headquarters in the Hunting Park section of Philadelphia as of Monday.

The rescued kittens are still too young to be adopted.

Adoptions are first-come, first-served, PSPCA says.
